Mash

A great 1970s classic, MASH is one of maverick director Robert Altman’s most important films, and the one that enabled him to cock a snook at Hollywood and pursue an independent career. With gruesome black humour delivered with perfect timing by a cast of outstanding comic actors, anarchic improvisations and oddball antics, Altman turns what could have been an insance, sadistic, anti-war rant into a cruel, cynical, unavoidably comic send-up of deperation in a Korean Mobile Army Surgical Hospital.
